In a perfect world, the decision to drag our country into war with the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism isn’t made by a draft dodging former reality tv gameshow host “president” and his day drinking former weekend tv “news” host Secretary of Defense.

There are 100k students in med school each year. Room and board is about 100k per year. For 10b a year, med school could be free. We would see a wholesale change in the profession, career paths and the cost of care. It would change the economics for every financial decision doctors

Republican plans to cap student borrowing could shatter an everyday profession
One GOP senator said anyone paying more than $100K to go to med school is "making a huge mistake." But the median cost of attending one is more than double that for the class of 2025.

The antiwar President is taking us to war. Does ANYONE believe that if Trump hasn't ripped up the Iran deal for no reason, and Kamala Harris had won, we'd be going to war now? Pathetic stuff.

This feels existential for US science: To get any future medical research funding, an entire university would need to certify that it won't have programs doing DEIA work (e.g. note-takers for blind students, veteran's support, women's resource groups, etc.) No institution could *ever* comply.

It isn't just the stock markets collapsing. Trump is also collapsing the U.S. Dollar. That is a very, very bad sign. Not only will American consumers be paying for tariffs in higher costs, but the purchasing power of their money will not stretch as far. #TrumpEconomy www.cnbc.com/2025/04/21/u...
